Both literally and figuratively. Iāve been road tripping this week, and Iāve finally landed in Pittsburgh with a full day to myself, I can slow down and relax for the first time in like five days - Iām exploring the green spaces, and I went to the Phipps Conservatory where I got to see these butterflies and literally smell the flowers! Highly recommend both the act of slowing down and actually smelling nature

Sometimes I just need a break from the hustle and bustle of life and to sit on the grass or bench in a quiet park. Listening to the leaves rustling in the breeze and the birds tweeting brings about a sense of calming throughout my body that feels so recharging for my soul.

Iāve been embracing the fact that thereās a difference between resting our bodies and resting our brains. I live in a city, so Iām always constantly around sounds and movements. I found that being in nature, around trees, clean air, in solitude allows me to really rest my brain fr fr. If able to, go on a trip somewhere far or even visit the nearest greeneries to āØrechargeāØ

take a break from the city, explore the concept of āshinrin-yokuā or forest bathing.
take yourself to a nice river walk. on this trip, we have no internet and phones on. and it was the slowest morning i had !
play with the water, touch the leaves, smell the air, just be with nature. itās fun without the pressure of ātrailā or āhikingā because the destination is just being in with nature and using your 5 senses or more to enjoy it !! āØ

A website with a collection of screengrabs from nearly every movie you could think of, and you can sort by film title, director, cinematographer, year, genre, country, etc. Great for visual references for lookbooks, or just to discover a new film you might be interested in seeing!
I've attached one of my favorite stills, a great moment from Chungking Express (Dir. Wong Kar-Wai, 1994).

Just going out and picking up any kind of used physical media (books, CDs, DVDs, cassette tapes) makes the archivist in me happy, like Iām preserving somebody elseās story/ enjoyment of something
My personal favorite thing is VHS tapes, Iāve got a decent collection (all thrifted) and theyāre usually the cheapest things offered
